"By this time sophisticated aerial photography from kites balloons and even pigeons had already developed significantly thanks to a century of experiments by scientists and militaries. In The Balloon Prospect Caren Kaplan writes that balloons were used for military reconnaissance as early as June 26th 1794 when the French Revolutionary Army floated balloons over their engagement with the Austrian-Dutch coalition in Fleurus Belgium. Aerial reconnaissance from balloons also saw use in the American Civil War the Spanish-American War the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and in the Boer War. Balloons and other methods of aerial photography began to give way to airplanes in the Italo-Turkish War in which aircraft were used for the first time for military reconnaissance directing naval gunfire. At the 1913 Paris Aero Salon French engineers revealed the first airplane to be equipped with a specially configured aerial camera. By 1914 each of Europes major powers had developed dedicated aircraft corps for aerial intelligence. The single use in war for which the machines of the Military Wing of the Royal Flying Corps were designed and the men trained was let it be repeated reconnaissance It was designed to operate with an expeditionary force and to furnish that force with eyes wrote Walter Raleigh in The War in the Air: In Being the Story of the Part Played in the Great War by the Royal Air Force 1922.
